IND vs NZ, 1st Test, Day 2 Highlights: New Zealand Take Control As India Struggle To Find Breakthrough

That's All Folks From today's coverage and we will be back tomorrow for the live coverage of day 3 of the first Test between India and New Zealand. Stay tuned and keep following OneCricket for latest updates from cricket world. 

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Rishabh Pant Gets Injured

Disaster for team India! Rishabh Pant hurt his knee and has hobbled off the field. The physio came in and had a quick look, but decided to take him off. Dhruv Jurel replaces him. Things not looking right for him...

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: A Mix-Up In The Middle, But Batters Survive

India are creating and Ravindra Jadeja had the best of them all as he could have run-out Will Young because of a mix-up, but the batter reached the crease in time. 

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Will Young Survives!

Oh, what an anti-climax this is! Nothing is going India's way! Kuldeep Yadav got the LBW decision against Will Young in his favour but the batter took the DRS and survives. There is an inside edge off the bat to the pad and the on-field decision is overturned.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: KULDEEP STRIKES!!!

India desperately needed a wicket and they have got it! Tom Latham departs as Kuldeep Yadav strikes with huge blow. Tossed up ball and Latham goes for a tentative block as the ball beats the inside-edge and raps him on the front-leg. Rohit goes for the review and he was right as India gets the big fish.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: KL Rahul's Blunder Saves Tom Latham

Oh dear! KL Rahul and Virat Kohli leave it to each other in the slip cordon! Both of them don't go at a regulation catch. The outside edge goes right in between the first and second slips. Tom Latham gets a lifeline.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Conway, Latham Looking Good!!

Unlike India, Devon Conway and Tom Latham have got off to a positive start and are dealing in boundaries every over.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: We Are All Set For New Zealand's Reply!

Latham and Devon Conway are out in the middle and Mohammed Siraj is ready with the new cherry. Here we go......

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: 46 All Out!

India have been bowled out for their lowest total at home. 46 All Out. Matt Henry has five, William O’Rourke has four. What a day for New Zealand cricket.

We will be back with the chase real soon.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Hosts 40/9!

Shambolic. Absolutely shambolic from India. They seem to have lost ideas when it comes to tackling Matt Henry and William O'Rourke. No Rishabh Pant heroics; Jasprit Bumrah follows him as well.

New Zealand are just one wicket away to fold India for an unwanted total.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Matt Henry Strikes Straightaway!

Just when you are assuming Ashwin will have a major role to play after lunch, he endures a golden duck. Matt Henry does the damage. New Zealand have struck straight after the break.

India are 39/7.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Duck For Jadeja; LUNCH!

A terrible performance by India with bat, having lost six wickets already. Ravindra Jadeja has registered a six-ball duck, just like Rahul. Rishabh Pant is India's only hope now.

LUNCH. India are in tatters, slipping to 34/6 after 23.5 overs.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: First Kohli, Now Rahul!

Two star players, adored by Bengaluru fans, have gone for duck. Such an upsetting performance, first by Kohli, now by Rahul. William O'Rourke has three now. A day to remember for the Kiwi.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Jaiswal Falls!

Oh, dear! Yashasvi Jaiswal has thrown his wicket here. William O'Rourke gets two wickets. Jaiswal's valiant 63-ball 13 comes to an end.

Here comes local hero KL Rahul, joining Rishabh Pant.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: No Harm Done Since Break!

Job well done, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rishabh Pant so far! Both of them kept New Zealand bowlers frustrated, as the partnership is now over 50 balls. Let us see if they can hold the fort till lunch, which is still 30 minutes away.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Pant Hits First Boundary!

What a way to resume action. Rishabh Pant drives William O'Rourke through cover point for the first boundary of the day. Bravo!

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Play To Resume At 11:05 AM!

Woah! The action will resume at 11:05 AM, which means we are seven minutes away from the resumption. Players are already warming up.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Rain Has Stopped!

Good news. Rain in Bengaluru has stopped. The umpires are out in the middle to have a check. We should get an update soon.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Did You Know?

India losing 3+ wickets for 10 runs or below at home (since 1990)

7 runs vs New Zealand, Mohali, 1999

2 runs vs New Zealand, Ahmedabad, 2010

10 runs vs New Zealand, Bengaluru, 2024*

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Rain Has Arrived!

Well, well, well. It was coming, and it has now got heavier. Rain has forced players to walk off. We might get an early lunch as things stand. India are 13/3 after 12.4 overs, with Rishabh Pant and Yashasvi Jaiswal in the middle, on 11-ball 3 and 37-ball 8 respectively.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: I. C. Y. M. I 🔥

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Eyes On The Prize!

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Three-ball duck for Sarfaraz Khan!

Possibly the worst possible return for Sarfaraz Khan in international cricket. A three-ball duck for India's most consistent domestic star at present, courtesy of a screamer of a catch by Devon Conway.

India are 12/3 after 10.5 overs.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Virat Kohli Falls For Duck In Bengaluru!

Such a shame! Oh dear! Virat Kohli could not even open the mark at his second home. Brilliant catch by Glenn Phillips! William O'Rourke gets Kohli. India in trouble.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Rohit Sharma Cleaned Up!

Rohit Sharma did not look comfortable in the middle, and the inevitable happened. Tim Southee has got the big fish, as Rohit gets knocked over after a 16-ball 2.

Here comes Virat Kohli, at No. 3.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Steady Start By India!

Seven runs in four overs. Safe to say, Indian openers Rohit Sharma and Yashavi Jaiswal have taken a cautious approach to start things off. Right move, of course, considering the overcast conditions.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Virat Kohli At No. 3? 👀

While Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma are walking out in the middle, Virat Kohli is all padded up. Seems like he will bat at No. 3 as there is no Shubman Gill today.

Tim Southee has got the new ball in hand. Jaiswal is on strike. Here we go!

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Playing XIs!

Surprise surprise! Shubman Gill is not playing. Captain Rohit mentioned that he was not feeling well to be available for selections. Sarfaraz Khan is back, while Kuldeep Yadav has replaced Akash Deep.

India XI: Rohit Sharma (c), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Sarfaraz Khan, Rishabh Pant (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj

New Zealand XI: Tom Latham (c), Devon Conway, Will Young, Rachin Ravindra, Daryl Mitchell, Tom Blundell (wk), Glenn Phillips, Matt Henry, Tim Southee, Ajaz Patel, William O'Rourke

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: India To Bat First!

Woah! Worth the wait for fans. India have won the toss, and they have decided to bat first.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Toss At 8:45 AM!

Great news, folks. We shall have a toss at the right time, all thanks to an improved Chinnaswamy weather. Let's hope it goes well today.

IND vs NZ, Day 2 Live Score: Revised Session Timings!
